Eliaichi Kimaro is an artist who lives and works in Seattle, Washington. She sat down for an interview with Lost in Composition in late April of 2022. The recording of our discussion is below. Following the video are samples of her work, links to the galleries currently representing her, and items discussed in our interview. I would like to thank Eliaichi for the discussion and using her images.
